This video was created by Iryna, one of our pre-selected candidates for the Travel Volunteer contest and introduces the Sky Light Event in Kiev, Ukraine. The action was arranged by Japanese designer Yamamoto Kansai, with main purpose -- to cheer the sufferers of huge earthquake disaster happened on March 11, and to respect those who suffered from similar disasters in Ukraine (nuclear accident of Chernobyl nuclear plant) and in Indonesia (tsunami waves in Sumatra Island). 500 of beautiful floating lanterns was released this evening into the night sky in honor and respect of the souls of those who died on or following March 11, and as a symbolic display of support and solidarity for survivors who have lost family and friends. It is second of three consequent event of this kind. First event was held on August 20 in Bali, and third will take place on September 10th in Fukushima.
